Re: I really had no idea..
Britbee, I live in Ireland so all my drugs are free too as was everything during my cancer tx including Neulasta etc and I'm very grateful for that as know many ladies in the U.S who fell on hard times with no insurance and had to fight for these drugs at a time they ill could afford to do so.
Amy, I moderate the susan g komen message boards and must beg to differ with you, I've been doing this for four years and posting there for six, and can't begin to tell you the numbers of women who have had free Mammo's and other help and advice provided by this organization and while I don't have numbers on hand right now of $ amounts given to this type of help I seriously question its as low as you were told.
